Bigblue25 Posted September 29, 2015 Share Posted September 29, 2015 Jones probably doesn't get that opportunity without Nelson being out, but yeah he's been good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sephiroth Posted September 29, 2015 Author Share Posted September 29, 2015 Sort of like how Jones wouldn't have had the opportunity without Cruz being out, but... oh yeah. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NightFire Posted September 29, 2015 Share Posted September 29, 2015 http://espn.go.com/nfl/player/stats/_/id/13703/preston-parker That neck tattoo is going help immensely in his future career endeavours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sephiroth Posted September 29, 2015 Author Share Posted September 29, 2015 Honestly though, why keep a Green Bay castoff receiver... when you can have one of Tampa Bay's castoffs! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigblue25 Posted September 30, 2015 Share Posted September 30, 2015 Sort of like how Jones wouldn't have had the opportunity without Cruz being out, but... oh yeah. Jones doesn't play the slot. They still would of used Parker extensively in those first two games while Jones sat the bench behind Randle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Treehugger Posted October 1, 2015 Share Posted October 1, 2015 Jones doesn't play the slot.

Beckham's lined up inside on plenty of snaps, so could any of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Storm Posted October 1, 2015 Share Posted October 1, 2015 Jones could play slot if they wanted him to. Beckham's lined up inside on plenty of snaps, so could any of them. Yep, I also don't buy that excuse. The Giants coaches and front office fucked up. It's really as simple as that. Jared Allen is close to being done, but he was worth a 6th rounder and 800K for one year while we wait for Jason Piere Paw to come back. I'm not sure why we haven't heard if there was interest from the Giants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boohyah Posted October 1, 2015 Share Posted October 1, 2015 Aaron Rodgers could make a lot of wide receivers look that good right now. Best QB in the league. I'd keep that in mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueInCanada Posted October 1, 2015 Share Posted October 1, 2015 Yeah, I don't get that either. TC: We're going to have you play slot this year. Jones: I don't want to play slot.

Mr. P Posted October 1, 2015 Share Posted October 1, 2015 I think if we talk about James Jones enough it puts him back on the giants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bigblue25 Posted October 1, 2015 Share Posted October 1, 2015 You honestly think he would of played, when he said he wouldnt? Exactly. Jones is more similar to Randle than Cruz and yeah maybe he can play the slot, but how effective? Jones is not a speedster and like I said he plays the possesion WR role behind Randle and we still have Parker taking the Cruz role in the first two games Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueInCanada Posted October 1, 2015 Share Posted October 1, 2015 If I had signed a contract like Jones had, I wouldn't have had that option. Tell that to Cam Chancellor, or any other player who has held out just for money, not even playing issues. Hell Jake Plummer chose retirement over playing for the Bucks. Elway was going to hold out an entire year and go play baseball instead of being picked by the Colts. Even Eli was going to sit out the NFL year if The Whale Vaginas drafted him.

You can't really do that if you're employed under contract. Unless your employer lets you go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know why teams cater to some of these guys, but you're right on that, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would you honestly carry a guy for an entire year as the injuries pile up, with the possibility of the NFLPA getting involved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
